Chapter 315

When he mentioned Gong Yueyue, Zhao Xiong thought for a moment and said to his old friend, "brother Yang, brother Cao. I remember my poor daughter-in-law advised me to retire when I was alive. These four words, I also give you. Every man is responsible for the difficulties of his country. But today, what the country needs is our letting go and leaving“

Seeing what he said calmly, there was no trace of resentment on his face. This makes Yang Jinzhong, who has been silent, sigh: "Uncle Zhao, your openness and courage are really admired by the younger generation“

”The worst thing is death. People will die. As long as you are worthy of your heart and heaven and earth, what else to be afraid of? " You see, even my wife is not afraid“ With that, Zhao Xiong turned his face and looked at his wife. The nostalgia in his eyes could not be hidden.

Liu also showed an unprecedented calm and open-minded: "what I care about most in my life is the master and zhao'er. No matter what they will do in the future, as long as I am with them, I am not afraid of anything“

"Just..." Liu suddenly frowned and worried. A moment later, he came out from Zhao Xiong and knelt down solemnly in front of several generals.

"Oh, madam, what are you doing?" Cao Rui was stunned and hurried up to resist.

The Yangs were also at a loss.

”Madam, get up and talk“ Yang Guodong wanted to help her up, but he was afraid of etiquette, so he had to look at Zhao Xiong reluctantly.

Zhao Xiong got up and came to his wife and helped her up. " Ma'am, I know what you're worried about. It's just a big deal. It's not up to the two brothers to decide“

But when Liu raised his head, he was already in tears: "Sir, I know. I know it's hard to break the emperor's order. But there's only a little blood left in our family...... Zhao'er has been innocent and pitiful all his life. How can I bear to watch my two grandchildren die with us? They are so young“

At this point, I can't stop choking.

At this time, the generals suddenly realized that they understood Liu's concern. In fact, Yang Guodong knew that the two dolls were not Zhao Xiong's concern?

He took a deep breath, and a strong expression appeared on his face: "madam, madam, don't be too sad. I'm Yang Guodong here to assure you that even if you risk your life, you will save the lives of your two grandchildren. Moreover, they are also my granddaughters! "

There was a sense of parting in the room. No one noticed that it was getting late and late.

When Liu lit the candles one by one, there seemed to be a rapid sound of footsteps outside the door.

Everyone present, at this time, his heart beat faster and his hair stood up. Because they all know what will happen in this situation. Just now, the emperor has announced the oral order in the hall, beheaded and made a decision. This means that even the sun on the second day is not allowed to be seen by the Zhao family.

Liu went to Zhao Xiong, and Zhao Xiong held her hand tightly.

"Master, do you think we can still see zhao'er“ She asked softly.

Zhao xionggang wants to answer. I heard a loud and shrill cry outside my door.

"General Zhao!" This is Tong Xian's voice. It sounds urgent. It looks like it came all the way.

Zhao Xiong took the people out of the house and met the panting Tong Xian“ Lord Tong? Why are you here? "

Tongxian was out of breath. He slapped himself and looked at the people behind Zhao Xiong“ All...... It's all there... "

”Lord Tong, are you...... To deliver the edict“ Zhao Xiong was confused when he saw this battle. How could the minister's will be sent in such an amateur way?

Everyone also looked at Tong Xian suspiciously. Yang Jinyi was even more impatient. He rushed up to hold each other's arm and shouted, "my grandpa and aunt, you are talking! Want to kill us? "

Tong Xian finally straightened up and smoothed his breath. Then, word by word, he announced to the people in a clear and neat tone: "General Zhao, just ordered by the emperor, release the general's family immediately and return to Luoyang general's house“

For a long time, no one believed his ears.

After a while, Yang Jinyi asked, "you...... What are you talking about“

Tong Xian shook his head with a smile and repeated to Zhao Xiong: "the emperor ordered that the Zhao family be released immediately without error“

Everyone was in an uproar. Cao Rui rushed to Tong Xian and asked excitedly, "are you kidding? Just now the Emperor“

Tong Xian raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "Oh, general Cao, you give me ten courage. I dare not make fun of it! Oh, I said, General Yang, let go. It hurts me“

Yang Jinyi laughed and let go of his hand.

Everyone present, including many soldiers standing in the yard, cheered for the news. But anyone who still has some conscience knows that the Zhao family is a loyal family. How can they be chaotic officials and thieves? How can you not make people happy if you can escape from the heaven outside the ghost gate?

Back in the house, Yang Guodong remembered to ask Tong Xian, "how could the emperor suddenly change his mind?" In the afternoon, in front of the officials, the emperor tried his best to kill the Zhao family.

Not only did Yang Guodong feel strange, but even Zhao Xiong himself was a little confused when he was happy“ Yes, Lord Tong, tell us what's going on? "

Tong Xian took a sip of the tea given to him by Liu Shi, frowned and thought for a long time. It looked like a fog: "I don't know about it. Just as Lord pan closed the door in the main hall and muttered to the emperor, he didn't know what to say, and the emperor suddenly changed his mind. "

He didn't say it was OK. When he said this, all the monks here couldn't figure it out. All you look at me, I look at you, a blank face.

Yang Quanyi stared and asked, "you...... Who are you talking about? "Pan Zhuqing?"

Tong Xian nodded: "yes! Pan Zhuqing, Lord pan. "

"How could he?" Yang Jinyi asked the first question in everyone's mind.

"How did he do it?" Zhao Xiong asked the second question in everyone's mind.

Today's emperor is not a great Ming king. But he is also a person who doesn't have an idea. What Zhao Tong really believes in and has made up his mind will not be controlled by others.

In the past, Zhao Changyuan also turned the tide in front of the emperor. But in the final analysis, it is because it did not touch the emperor's own interests, so the emperor did not, and there is no need to investigate too much.

Now this matter involves the emperor's heart disease and minefield. How did pan Zhuqing turn the situation around? How on earth did he do it?

Pan Zhuqing didn't care about his answer. He just walked forward with great strides and left a sentence: "let's go to the punishment department“

Pan Zhuqing's access to the prison of the Ministry of punishment was naturally not hindered. The officials of the Ministry of punishment personally opened the way for him with lanterns and led him to the dungeon where Zhao Changyuan, a felon, was detained.

Because of his occupation, pan Zhuqing approached the prison as often as he ate. But what makes him feel special is only twice. One was when pan Jingyuan visited as a relative when he was in trouble. Another time is today.

He remembered standing at the door of his cell that day and seeing his brother sitting on the ground alone through a small window. That was the first time he felt his wish to protect his brother as a brother.

At this moment, he also stood in front of an iron door and looked in through the window, but there was a complex emotion lingering in his heart.

Still such a dark and narrow space, or only the light of a skylight. But pan Zhuqing found that the man sitting on the stone bed was still holding the lotus seat, his hands folded, and his mouth seemed to be whispering Sanskrit. The moonlight sprinkled on Zhao Changyuan's face, calm and indifferent, as if he was not in prison, but sitting in the Buddhist hall under Bodhi.

Pan Zhuqing looked at him in silence for a long time until the people inside suddenly opened their eyes and looked back at him calmly.

He smiled without trace and asked the jailer to open the prison door for him.

"You've only been a monk for one year. You're very pious. At this point, I still don't forget to recite scriptures and Buddha. Are you asking for Buddha's blessing? " Pan Zhuqing went in and sat on the ground in front of Zhao Changyuan. He didn't forget to laugh and tease him.

Zhao Changyuan looked calm and replied lightly, "it's enough to have the protection of Lord pan“

Pan Zhuqing asked with puzzled eyebrows, "Why are you so confident in me?"

”Just know yourself and your enemy“ Zhao Changyuan answered quite simply.

"What a man who knows himself and the enemy. Why don't you guess how I persuaded the emperor? "

Zhao Changyuan didn't speak any more. He smiled at the corners of his mouth, picked up the straw on the ground and put a word on the stone bed.

Pan Zhuqing fixed her eyes and looked at it. She was stunned at first, then burst out laughing. It seemed like a joke and said seriously, "you know me like the back of your hand. I really don't know if I helped you this time is tantamount to harming myself“

"You're not helping me, you're helping yourself“ Zhao Changyuan responded faintly.

Pan Zhuqing put away his smile and resumed his usual indifference and alienation on his face. " So are you ready“

”At your disposal“

A moment later, pan Zhuqing came out of prison. Zhao Changyuan was still sitting on the stone bed. Under the moonlight at his knees, there was a big character - "Liao" put out with straw.

The corridor of the prison of the Ministry of punishment is long and narrow. The dim candle lit the mottled walls strangely. Pan Zhuqing walked out coldly, looking back on what happened in the Jinluan hall in the evening.

"What's the matter with Pan Aiqing?" At that time, all the officials retreated one after another. Only the emperor and pan Zhuqing were left in the hall.

Pan Zhuqing stood in the center of the hall, arched his hands and was about to speak. Then he heard the rapid footsteps coming in outside the hall.

The emperor frowned slightly. As soon as he was about to attack, he found that the person who came in was Hu Weiyan, the messenger of the military newspaper. He couldn't help being nervous. As we all know, only when there is an emergency military situation can these military newspaper messengers directly enter the emperor without passing on.
